Microsoft launch coronavirus tracking map

The coronavirus has been spreading like wildfire in recent weeks. To help the pubic stay informed about which countries are most affected by the virus, Microsoft’s Bing team have created a dedicated website to track the spread.

The website provides users with more than just updated numbers of infections in different countries. It allows users to interact with a particular country of interest to get more details on the number of confirmed cases, active cases, recovered cases, and fatal cases as well. For some locations, you also get a breakdown of the stats for cities or states.

Microsoft updates the website with information from trusted sources like World Health Organization (WHO), the US Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC).

Using these sources means you can trust the information provided. It also means you won’t fall prey to hackers who have set up fake coronavirus maps.
